JOHN srEpHENsoNs VICTORY.
His Striking Workmen Defeated in His Shops
Running with q Full Force.

His Striking Workmen Defeated in His Shops
Running with q Full Force.
New York Graphic.
There was a curious spectacle at the Stepen-
son works, East Twenty seventh street,
this morning. Two weeks ago last Thursday
seventy-five of the workmen in the car shops
struck on the ground that some of the workmen
in the shop were underpaid, and that union
men were employed. After this quit daily,
out of sympathy" until over 200 of the $50 en-
ployes had struck.
John Stephenson had been in this one business
sixty years. and claims that he had never
before had any trouble with his men; that, in
fact, there had always been more than usual
kind feeling between him and his employees. He
refused to listen to the strikers, claiming that
his long life in business a guarantee OF his
integrity, that he had always managed his bust
ness affairs, and was too old to learn now to he
dictated to by others. He would concede moth
ing. But such of his men chose to return to
work on his terms could do He advertised
for men, and the reputation of The shop
giving employment the year round brought
many responses.
About fifty of the strikers returned to work,
dropping in few of them every day. New men
taken in and on SATURDAY. last there were
250 men at work. Friday night the strikers had
meeting, and there was diversity of opinion
discovered. Some were open in their declara-
ton that they felt that they had been foolish in
striking. Many of the men had been employed
in the shop for twenty five years. The meeting
could not by any mems agree. Many of the
men resolved to apply for their old places,
sumo to-day. The result the gathering in
Twenty-seventh street of $50 men. about
hundred of whom were men who had struck, the
others being men seeking work.
In his little Office sat the white haired, sturdy,
veteran car-builder, John Stephenson himself.
Outside. in the covered yard, the several fore
men in the shop stood, and the applying men
were each, in turn, given q chance. The men
were told that the old employees would be given
the preference. A man stepped out of the party
and the foreman under whom he had worked
consulted tablet which he had. and said either

If the former was said, the stepped back.
for it meant that his chance for work there was
very slim. If his place was still unoccupied the
man permitted to pass through the main
Office to Mr.. Stephenson's private Office, and
there private interview had. Mr.. Stephen
required that each man should sign a sepa-
rate agreement that ne would cut loose from any
assembly of the Knights of Labor. or other
union labor organization before the applicant
could receive work.
About seventy-five of the old employees had in
terviews with Mr.. Stephenson to this manner.
Thirty five signed the required agreement and
went to work None of the corners were
given places. and fifty of the old employees found
their places occupied by men, The shops
now have about three hundred men and are very
busy.

Morrison. whose effective pitching at Phila-
delphia and Washington has given him some
standing, will pitch for the Indianapolis nine at
Chicago, to-day. There is story connected
with his signing with the Indianapolis club that
illustrates the accident of fortune far as he is
concerned. When the Indianapolis players were
at Boston, Bassett asked for permission to 60 to
Pawtucket, r. l.. to spend Sunday. Manager
Burnham not only consented. but said he would

looked on at amateur game. Morrison did
the pitching. and struck out twenty one men.
After the game Burnham asked him if he would
like to pitch professionally. Morrison was a
rough looking speciman of humanity. He had
nothing in his appearance or action to impress
any one but he readily expressed his willingness
to negotiate for place with the apolis club,
although he know little nothing about pro-
fessional agreements. He had sufficient shrewd-
ness, though, TO ask for an immediate signing
but to this Burnham would not agree. He
would give him trial, and if it proved salts
factory an arrangement might be made. Nor
r1son went to Boston, and there in practice he
was tried with Hackett as catcher He favor
ably impressed the players and Hackett said
his delivery was strong, swift and sure. Then
the club went to Philadelphia. Morrison still
